Re: Friday the 13th + Nightmare on Elmstreet...

I thought Friday the 13th was pretty scarry, A Nightmare on Elm St. not so much. Actually, I always thought Freddy was pretty cheesy and not in a good way.

It would be nice to see a stripped down, back to basics Ft13; perhaps a prequel or one set in the late '70's (which may be what this is, I couldn't see your link).

I love watching seventies horror. Since the budgets were typcally so low they really had to rely on suspense and surprise and a lot of cheesy (in a good way) macabre. To me The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is much scarrier than anything I've seen in the last twenty years.

Re: Friday the 13th + Nightmare on Elmstreet...

It is a shame though... Englund is Freddy Krueger. Billy Bob is a good actor (sometimes), but I just don't see anybody being too thrilled with him replacing Englund.

Billy Bob a good actor? Maybe. Good drunk on camera? Absolutely...

Bad Santa

(yes, I'll admit - he's got some good works out there...)

That right there makes a good movie. Im tired of the Hostel type horror that is just gross. I want something to make me jump out of my seat, not want to vomit in it. The feeling that something could jump out and may or may not in the end is the fun. I guess anymore they leave this to the psychological thrillers and the horror genre has gone to the gore only.
